“We have always tried to be pioneers,” he says. “We are the oldest winery in Rioja, we helped create the Rueda D.O., but the key has been combining innovation with tradition.”

In fact, innovation has been at the heart of Riscal’s existence since Guillermo Hurtado de Amézaga founded the winery in 1858.

It was the first Spanish winery to fully adopt the Bordeaux chateau model, where all grapes are estate-grown, and top wines are aged in barriques. Over the decades, improvements included wrapping its bottles in gold netting to thwart forgeries; launching a wine called Barón de Chirel in the 1980s that prompted the entire Rioja region to explore making fuller, more internationally styled wines; and employing top-level French winemaking consultants like Paul Pontallier of Château Margaux.

That vision and gumption paved the way to construct the Hotel Marqués de Riscal, home to a Michelin-star restaurant run by local chef Francis Paniego, as well as a Caudalie Vinotherapy Spa.

On the wine side, Marqués de Riscal, which produces just under 1 million cases annually, is hardly standing pat. Two years ago, it overhauled its 1883 El Palomar wine cellar to bring it up to date.
